"Underrated area of Brisbane LGA"

Area well connected for the Western suburbs, with good public transport and easy access to the Ipswich and Centenary motorways. Housing still relatively affordable, characterised by large block sizes and solidly built dwellings. For ease of access to the CBD you can’t do much better at this price point.
